'Marvellous views over the Evenlode
Valley,' says Jackie. 'The blackboard
menu offers relaxed eating in the bar
and garden terrace, and many of the
herbs and veg are grown in the kitchen
garden. Fish and chips and ploughman's
in the bar are complemented by Cornish
scallops with lemon curd and beetroot,
and pea and mint risotto with roasted
sweetbreads on the à la carte.'
